I'm extremely interested in the prospect of self-hosted cloud gaming. Has anyone had any success with any specific platforms, such as Sunshine + Moonlight? Any ins/outs to the necessary software or hardware?

I know some people are using Sunshine + Moonlight for their Steamdecks, usually with their Gaming PC as the server. I guess running your fat rig with GPU 24/7 will use quite a bit power

I've been doing it since before the Steam Deck came out, and I just enabled WoL, so the computer sleeps until I open Moonlight and try to access it, then it wakes up. Same with local LLM processing.

How do you set up wol for this?

Just enable it in the BIOS, then make sure the network card has it enabled in Device Manager, and it works like magic (packets).
